Experience

I am currently pursuing my undergraduate degree in chemistry from the University of Washington. I am passionate about science and math and I truly love the experience of watching a student when they finally comprehend a concept in one of these fields for the first time. It is in that moment where the student truly understands something they have struggled with that the fruits of the long hours of teaching and preparation are revealed. I primarily tutor students in math and science courses such as algebra 1 & 2, calculus 1, geometry, middle school math, pre-calculus, trigonometry, chemistry, physics, arithmetic, biochemistry, pre-algebra, math, and science. I also work with students in similar IB and AP courses. As I have had the opportunity to work with more students, I have discovered just how important it is to make sure they are able to work through each type of problem themselves and not only when they are following along with me. To do this requires determining where their starting ability lies and then constantly encouraging them to work out new problems on their own until they are able to do so without any additional assistance from me. Ultimately, I don't want to just teach my students how to solve a single type of problem or ace a test. I want to inspire them to have a love of math and science that will stay with them for a lifetime.
